Storyline: Blazers are in flux, having traded Gerald Wallace and Marcus Camby and fired coach Nate McMillan on Thursday and losing by 42 in New York on Wednesday. Former Bull Kurt Thomas and almost Bull Przybilla come to town for the only meeting this season. Derrick Rose is likely out with groin soreness and if Watson’s sprained ankle sidelines him, John Lucas III starts.
